ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What does it mean to stay true to yourself in an industry that constantly asks you to fit a mold?
This week on RIANOUTLOUD!, independent artist Leo Canoza joins me to talk about creating music without limits. From growing up in Florida to finding his voice in Los Angeles, Leo shares how heartbreak, honesty, and fearless experimentation have shaped his genre-blending sound.
We dive into the story behind his single "Walk on By," his biggest musical influences, the realities of being an independent artist, and why authenticity will always matter more than chasing trends.
If you love honest conversations about creativity, vulnerability, and making art on your own terms, this episode is for you.
